One-man band to play Chandler

A musician who is literally a one-man band is set to appear in Chandler.

MG Bailey is from Chicago, where he performs frequently at venues from classic Chicago clubs to private parties. Known for his good-natured delivery and interaction with his audiences, Bailey has blended soul, pop, blues, and punk throughout his career, often using unconventional instruments to do so. Poster printing is a great way to create exciting advertising for events like this.

Bailey’s last band dissolved in 2008, so he took the opportunity to take apart and reassemble instruments, sometimes using duct tape. He also experimented with looping and electronic music for about 18 months, but he kept thinking about a street musician he had seen 10 years earlier in Memphis. The man was performing on the legendary Beale Street, playing drums, a handmade guitar, and a bucket. Bailey wanted to create this type of organic sound and began using found objects, adding or deleting parts of his setup as his experiments succeeded or failed.

Critics say:

"M.G. Bailey stands out based on sheer, undeniable authenticity. . . . there is no doubt that his complicated setup of pedals and processors and drums and jangly things is only onstage . . . because it’s the most effective way he’s found to express his songs . . ."


Bailey will be at Murphy’s Law in Chandler on August 24, with the doors opening at 8:00 pm.
